SV650 noob question

"that'll be upside down. Every sv'ers dream to convert their originals to those..."

but why? is front wheel suspension that important?

Try and get a ride on a standard SV, you will soon realise that front suspension is important

lol i see. i'll def try to get my hands on one to try

yeah, my yellow one is completely standard, its like riding a bone shaker!!
The black one has ohlins progressive springs and heavier oil in them and it is a great improvement. i should imagine the gsxr front end is better still

any chance of a picture catchsomesv650?

sure.

Suspension over all is very important, without it going round corners and breaking would be hard!
the better the suspension and the set up of the supension the better the ride will be.
The stock front SV suspension isnt very good. You can improve it by changing the springs and puting in heavier oil or by putting in a complete new front end off a GSRX which is even better. Thats what you have and i want

hope that clears it up a bit for you.

Find a long tunnel... rev it up to 9k, and let off the throttle, and enjoy the noise echo around the tunnel!

With that spec, it'll blow up soon!

I must insist you sell the bike to me for £50, to save you the misery of being blown up....
